hello friends, Im working as embedded software engineer in a small private company. I learnt more programming skills & techniques in my embedded field with few years of experience. Mostly, we are using C language programming. I have implemented some industrial protocols also. But I came to know that i doesnt know C programming perfectly from which that I was faced in all my interviews. Im having some doubts in C programming. Can anybody share with my questions and answering. Friends, I hope atleast one can respond me asap. Its my ID: ********@****** **.***. (Im sorry, If wasted your time).

Feel free to ask your questions here in public; that's what a public forum is all
about: you write here, you read here and maybe others can learn something from
your questions and the answers supplied to you.

kind regards,

Some questions should be related to what you have on your resume.
  1. Why did you do blah blah.
  2. How did you do it?
  3. What was your reasoning for doing so.
  4. If you could do it over again, would you take the same route? Why?
As for coding questions:
  1. How would you implement a stack, single linked list, double linked list? (Tests your knowledge on your programming skills).
  2. What does void * (*fn)(int, double) mean?
  3. You were presumably asked questions in your interviews that threw you. What were they?

C is inadequate for embedded systems for the following reasons: 1) Direct addressing of memory mapped I/O is not supported simply and easily. You have to find work-arounds that are compiler dependent. You have to create macros , use casting and use indirect addressing (pointers) to read or write to memory mapped I/O. 2) C does not...

Are there any restrictions/problems for use of C++ STL in development in embedded systems? In particular: * Does STL require too much space/memory? * Is 'implementation of STL algorithms/methods' reenterable/reentrant? * What is the cost to provide continuity of vectors in memory? Any other problems? -- Alex Vinokur

The memory allocation issue in embedded systems is usually critical.. How can one manage that? 1. Via 'new' char* p = new (nothrow) char ; if (p == 0) { // He we know that it is impossible to allocate the requested memory // We can do something relevant.

When I want to store a number, I use "unsigned". I go with unsigned because it's the natural type for the system, and so should be the fastest. However, there are 8-Bit microcontrollers out there that do 8-Bit arithmetic faster than 16-Bit arithmetic, and so on these systems char is faster than int. Standarising C in such a way that int...

There are a few guarantees I exploit in the C Standard. For instance, I might write (unsigned)-1 to get the maximum value for an unsigned integer. Also, I might rely on things such as: memset(data,-1,sizeof data)
